Famous quotes containing the words late and/or antique:

“While nature thus very early and very abundantly feeds us, she is very late in tutoring us as to the proper methodization of our diet.”

“His ugliness was the stuff of legend. In an age of affordable beauty, there was something heraldic about his lack of it. The antique arm whined as he reached for another mug. It was a Russian military prosthesis, a seven-function force-feedback manipulator, cased in grubby pink plastic.”
—William Gibson (b. 1948)
